Montage 2016-17: Creative American Spirit

"America is young. It is vibrant, dynamic, optimistic--and pragmatic. There is a drive here – toward success, toward innovation, toward the cross-pollination of art and science. And when our artists create and perform, the world says, 'OK. This is American.'

This year's Montage series celebrates 'The Creative American Spirit' – our unique blend of ambition and practicality, imagination and hard fact. And most of all, it celebrates those special works that just feel uniquely ours. From Eugene O'Neil to the Great American Songbook to The Harlem String Quartet, the 2016-17 Montage Performing Arts Series is proud to present our interpretation of this Creative American Spirit."

- Dr. Anthony Decuir, Dean of the Loyola College of Music and Fine Arts
